Another Hamas Attack

On 10-21, I read this headline: "Hamas threatens another Oct. 7-style attack on Israel in unprecedented warning. Hamas warned Israel through a UN envoy that it is prepared to launch another Oct. 7-style attack, targeting Israel, Judea and Samaria and abroad; The unprecedented threat comes amid mounting military pressure and a deepening financial crisis."

Today I saw another headline:  "Netanyahu orders Hebron sealed off, full West Bank closure after Hamas terror attack. The military had announced earlier that morning that two Hamas-linked terrorists, Hamouda and Firas Jua'ba, involved in the attack had been killed. There are no other terrorists involved."

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the city of Hebron to be cordoned off and for the entire West Bank to be blocked from entry and exit starting on Friday morning, after five people were wounded in a terror attack in the area carried out by Hamas terrorists.

"I have instructed the IDF and security forces to immediately impose a closure on the city of Hebron and prepare for a full lockdown of all of Judea and Samaria, beginning today," Netanyahu said, adding that the IDF would be carrying out extensive waves of arrests.

"We will pursue Hamas terrorists and those who send them, wherever they are and at any time," Netanyahu said. "You have nowhere to hide."

Is what just happened in the West Bank what Hamas had threatened, or is this a trial run before the real thing?  Whatever it is, I'm glad Netanyahu has acted so quickly in response.

Too bad Brad Lander and his group of propagandists weren't still there "picking olives" in some kind of publicity stunt, when this happened, so he could see for himself Hamas in action. I'm sure the usual mobs of anti-Israel morons will be blaming Israel rather than blaming Hamas for this latest attack.
